New Star Wars Show Acolyte Character Details Reportedly Revealed
New character details for Disney+'s upcoming television show The Acolyte have reportedly been revealed. Star Wars has found its home on television with a variety of popular series such as The Mandalorian, The Bad Batch, and The Book of Boba Fett. Additional highly-anticipated Star Wars shows are on the horizon as well, each aiming to expand the universe, like Obi-Wan Kenobi, Andor, and Ahsoka. The upcoming High Republic-themed television series, The Acolyte, has proven to be the far more mysterious series on Disney's slate. The upcoming show will reportedly take place during the end of the High Republic era, a prosperous period before the Galactic Republic that proved to be a more active period for the Jedi.
The Acolyte was first revealed in April 2020 with Russian Doll co-creator Leslye Headland as the show's head writer and showrunner. In December 2021, The Hate U Give and Dear Evan Hansen star Amandla Stenberg was cast in The Acolyte as lead role Aura, although details of her character remain unknown. Updates on The Acolyte have been few and far between since, but the latest bit of information sheds light on a couple new characters that might be on the show.
